> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6870
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Bryan Pendleton
> Labels: database, gsoc2016, java, jdbc
>
> For the 2016 Google Summer of Code, I am offering to mentor a
> student for general bug fixing of the Derby database.
> The Derby JIRA has collected the community's knowledge about
> known bugs in Derby, and there are plenty of bugs for us to work on.
> If you take on this project, with assistance from me, you'll:
> - select Derby issues from the Derby bug tracker to fix
> - reproduce those problems by writing and running tests
> - develop patches to address the problems
> - work with the community to get the patches reviewed
> - have your reviewed and accepted contributions committed to the next Derby release.
